Romance
Lee exchanges skyline for swampland in the
next book of her male/male romance series, Roadmap to Your Heart.
Rugged
and conventional Callum Montgomery enjoys running Shady Pines hunting preserve,
except for the secret that’s eating him alive. When his sister brings a date
for a family wedding, he can’t stand the arrogant city slicker with the stick
up his perfectly fine ass. He doesn’t understand his draw to Dean, who pushes
his buttons at every turn, but he’d never dream of betraying his sibling over
some lust fueled fantasy.
Handsome
and conscientious Dean Abbott is a research assistant in his university’s
biology lab. When his roommate, Cassie, begs him to be her pretend date in
front of her meddling family, he begrudgingly agrees to help. He doesn’t
anticipate being enchanted by the countryside, the colorful cast of characters,
or her sexy and brooding straight brother.
When
contempt turns to passion and leads to stolen moments in a sugar cane field,
Callum can’t help longing for the kind of connection he believes he can never
have. But not even the world’s most heart-melting kiss can bridge the vast
philosophical differences between the men.
Dean’s
return to his urban lifestyle leaves him restless, his mind continually
wandering to the charming setting that spoke to something missing deep inside
him. Because you can take the city boy out of the country but you can’t make
him forget the intriguing man he left behind.

Excerpt
“Isn’t there some law about
killing snakes in this state?” I heard our company say. Even out of the corner
of my eye I could see that the guy was one of them pretty city boys. He was
walking beside my sister, Cassie, who was busy filling him in on rattler
containment on personal property. He must’ve been the guest she’d mentioned
bringing.
Did he need to be that
handsome? Too bad he had to go and open his mouth.
“We can always walk away,” I said. I didn’t
dare take my eye off the rattlesnake for a second time. “But that leaves you
out here with no protection.”
I heard him gulp at the same
time Grammy snickered. “Sounds like our Cassie might’ve brought home some tree
hugger.”
Grammy gripped the heavy
rock in her fingers, ready to bash the rattler’s skull at a moment’s notice.
“They say when a rattler
strikes, your blood turns to fire. Like the venom is boiling away in your
veins,” I said and I could hear whatshisname’s breathing change. “You’ve got
about a ninety-minute window of time before the poison spreads.”
“And then what happens?” he
asked, and I could just imagine his pulse throbbing in his neck. I heard his
one foot scrape across the other as if rubbing some imaginary dirt from his
spotless shoes. Either that or it was some nervous tick.
I shrugged. “Then you’re dead.”
“Callum. Knock it off,”
Cassie said and I could hear the tightness in her voice. It pained me that we
hadn’t been in touch for a long while and I certainly didn’t want to piss her
off even further.
The snake retreated toward
its hiding spot and disappeared without a second glance at the mouse. Damn.
Now I looked our new guest
square in the face while my irritation bubbled over. Grammy had banked on
making a fresh batch today. Lately I left the hunting to my brother, Braden,
but he had a full plate, so I agreed to be a stand-in. “You Cassie’s date for
the wedding?”
“That’s right. I, uh, attend the same
college,” he said and I couldn’t help my gaze from snagging on the deepest set
of blue eyes. Not quite as dark as that tangle of hair that swept in a high arc
away from his forehead. Wearing a pair of fancy designer jeans that showed off
his trim form, he was smaller than me, but most guys were. And now I felt
shitty for checking out my sister’s guest. “The name’s Dean Abbott.”
Author Bio
Once upon a time, I lived in
New York City and was a wardrobe stylist. I spent my days shopping for photo
shoots, getting into cabs, eating amazing food, and drinking coffee at my
favorite hangouts.
Now I live in the Midwest
with my husband and son—my two favorite guys. I've been a clinical social
worker and a special education teacher. But it wasn't until I wrote a weekly
column for the local newspaper that I realized I could turn the fairytales
inside my head into the reality of writing fiction.
I'm addicted to lip gloss
and salted caramel everything. I believes in true love and kissing, so writing
romance novels has become a dream job.
I write Adult, New Adult,
and M/M romance. I also own a hand-stamped jewelry business, which requires me
to stamp letters and/or words onto pieces of silver. They go hand-in-hand
perfectly.
